I'm using those but as part of an upgrade kit. I also have 2 piece DBAs on the race car and 2 piece Ksport on the Stagea

Generally 2 piece rotors:

lighter due to alloy hat instead of all cast iron

dissipate heat better

cheaper to replace just the ring rather than whole thing

I haven't got them on the same car or tested back to back. But I am very happy with them. I would probably give them a go for a hard driven street car if they had a direct fit replacement like the link you had.

ATTKD are a Just Jap only brand AFAIK. But the Ksport, G4, D2 etc etc all seem to be the same or similar.

Im looking to replace my Sumitumos with Brembos because Im due for new everything front and rear.  I have a set of R33 GTR rear brembos.  Im curious if anyone knows FOR SURE if 350z Brembos with 350z rotors fit on the front of a R32 GTR.    I have heard the calipers and rotors off a 350z work together, just need to drill the holes to a fit the larger bolts, can anyone confirm this?

 

Thanks!

US edition of anything isn't a good thing lol.

Just remember you'll need the bolts from a R34 GT-t when you install them. The caliper bolts from a 350Z is too long. I think for you Trump lovers FRsport or Z1Motorsport have the correct bolts for sale.

Something like this? http://www.empireperformance.com.au/home/138-mitsubishi-evolution-10-dimpled-and-slotted-front-brake-rotors.html

Also, there's a growing "trend" for the Commodore/GM Brembo calipers, not sure what the sizes are compared to Evo though.

has anyone got onto these guys lately? tried a few emails and calls and nothing back

Hey all,  anybody considered trying the CTS-V caliper swap that seems to be real popular with the S-chassis crowd in the US? Just taking a glance at eBay it seems tonnes cheaper to grab a set of 6-pots off one of those than try and go the 350z Brembo route. Plus the parts can be had new instead of used and (correct me if I'm wrong here) the disk size is also bigger. One company's offering adaptors for the S13/14 and 300ZX (literally just called CTS-V Swaps or something, first result on Google), got in contact with the guy who says the S13s should work no problem for the 33 GTSTs/R34 GTs. Been thinking of looking into it for my R34 GT so if anyone else has given it a shot would be interested to hear.

      RB20DE NEO smallbox clutch.

      By Kapr · Posted

      So either way it is gearbox out and look what is wrong?  I know about the input shaft bearing. Even before swap/new clutch the it sounded exactly like this: So is that inout shaft bearing or the other was installed backwards?  And can some please tell me the part number for that input shaft bearing? The gearbox is small box from R34 N/A and number is FS5W71C. Thank you

      I am yet to see anyone ever regret a quaife or helical. ...other than drifting/skidpan duties. I kind of want to upgrade my factory helical with a Quaife (but really it's not ultimately that different, and is a MASSIVE UNDERTAKING), that's how good the hype is about them, that I want to try them 'just to see'

      D2 and Ksport are essentially the same thing and basically just generic Taiwanese manufacture. Better than ChinaBay crap, but... not top shelf. Öhlins have got to be some of the best dampers around, so likely to be a good option. It's going to get to the point though where I suggest you buy from Oz. We have at least 2x excellent options here. If I were you though, I'd be talking to KW about doing something for the R33. There's bugger all difference between that and the 32. In GTR land, anyway.

      KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.

      Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.
